Tango in the Spring: 1-4 October 2010 Canberra Australia

2008: Accommodation

Kingston, Manuka and the City Centre (or “Civic” as we call it here) are each reasonably close to some of the milonga venues, and are well located for other attractions.

Stay with friends – or make new ones!

We might be able to help you with a billet. If you know someone in Canberra you want to stay with, contact them directly. If not, send us an email to billets@tangointhespring.org.au, telling us when you are coming, and any special requirements or requests. We’ll get in touch and let you know whether someone has a spare room.Or, if you use Facebook, we have set up a group on Facebook where you can request a bed at someone’s place in Canberra, or if you’re a Canberra resident, offer accommodation to visitors, see TISP on Facebook.
